More than a game :)

| Last nights game in a word: Magic! Yes, magic!! Not just because of the outcome, not just because Beckett prooved once again he is the 2007 Cy Young winner throwing a 4 hit complete game shutout, and not just because Papi and Youk have found their groove. No, there was more to that, and that my friends is memories. We all have them, and for us fortunate enough, one of those memories is our very first Red Sox game, which is why this game meant so much even before Jerry Remy...

| Memorial day weekend in 2005 I went to visit friends in NY, Friday night we went to see the Sox/Yankees @ Yankee Stadium, the next day we hung out in Times Square....My friend thinks it is funny to have me going into the Yankees cLubhouse store and announce to everyone I'm a Red Sox fan....anyways I walk in with my Edgar Renteria shirt on and immediately this big guy comes over to me and is like "OH your boy Renteria has done sh*&t all year, big pick up by the sox" blah blah...

| I've been informed by a certain somebody who shall remain name-less that despite Beckett being the first 20 game winner in the majors since 05', that he will not win Cy Young, that in fact C.C. Sabathia will....Well Isham here are the stats and the stats don't lie. The source is MLB.com player comparision

E.Coli a good thing?!?!?!

Erica Orangepants wrote this 1 year ago on |
| Yeah, you must be thinking WTF does E. Coli have to do with the Red Sox?!?! Well here is the answer. Wareham's water is contaminated with it, so that means my work has to close early because we cant sell coffee!!!!! This also means that I DONT have to work tonight and I can watch the game!!!! :) :) :) :) :) OK so E. Coli is a bad thing, I'm not saying it's good, but if there was ever an E. Coli outbreak in Wareham it couldn't have come at a better time :)

| So Sox remain idol tonight as the Yankees take on the Tigers before returning home to face the sox in a critical three game series. So while Yankee fans worry about winning this game, what are the Red Sox fan doing?? I don't know about you but for the entire summer, I've taken too classes for college, Physiology of Wellness and Biology of Human Reproduction, fun classes I know *rolls eyes* I got a 96 on my Repro final, however, this Wellness final scares me :( So tonight I am going to go to...

Erica Orangepants wrote this 1 year ago on |
| So honestly people get all fired up about bandwagon fans. I say Welcome to the Nation :) See I don't care when people started to like a team. My only problem is people who pretend to like a team, and act like they know everything about them but in reality know crap about them. To be honest, even I am still learning about the history of the greatest team in organized sports history, and I'll be the first person to admit it. It's because of these people that the Red Sox make more money, and...

Some random Red Sox facts about me :)

| 1. I went to my first game on May 18, 2003. This marked only the third consecutive sell-out at Fenway Park...little did I know that from that moment on Fenway would sell-out every game since *its over 370*.
2. My second favorite player from the 05' season was involved in the longest at bat in major league history with my second favorite player from the 06' and 07' season. *It's Matt Clement and Alex Cora for those who didn't know*
3. The first major league baseball player I ever met...

Damn you Mother Nature

Erica Orangepants wrote this 1 year ago on |
| OK so I'm a little superstitious when it comes to the games. Ever since Opening Day of 06' I have worn my Beckett shirt EVERY time he has pitched, but mother nature had to go and f*&k with me!! But I'm diehard, so I'm still going to rock the shirt, eat my orange and do some cardiovascular today :) Hopefully the weather holds up :)
The White Sox thought they were all sly putting in Garland in game one. Hopefully, this double-header is better than the last one *although the last one was...

Erica Orangepants wrote this 1 year ago on |
| I just needed to vent and get something off my chest. I'm so tired of having to prove myself to people because I'm a girl who happens to be a die-hard sports fan. Honestly, whenever I tell someone I am a Pats fan, 99% of the time I will get a comment like "Why?? because of Tom Brady, " or something to that effect. Tom Brady isn't even my favorite player, Rodney Harrison is. This is because of those stupid "fans" only liking a team because someone...

The middle game

Erica Orangepants wrote this 1 year ago on |
| With Lester taking the mound tonight I feel pretty confident in the team. He just seems to be that pitcher who never gets a decision, but tonight hopefully he can run his record to 2-0 and lower his ERA just a little. Also, hopefully, the Angels can continue there dominance over the Yankees. I was listening to Dale and Holley *if i spelled that wrong im sorry* and they mentioned that for the past 4 seasons the angels have won the season series with the yankees, and that...

| Well tonight is the night where you hope to god Wakefield extends his winning streak at the Trop. Why?? The answer is easy, look who's pitching for the D-Rays...Scott Kazmir....while not totally striking fear into anyones eyes, he's got awesome stuff, especially when he plays a team like the sox. Oh and guess what else....the heckler I was sooooo missing, he's baaaaaaaaaaack. I know most fans hate him, but he made me laugh so much during the 04' and 05' season. ...

| I'd just like to thank Eric Gagne for another disasterous game. That's three games he has cost us in the standings. We could have won the series against the Angels but noooooooooooooooo. Seriously, we can't afford to be patient with him like we were with Pedroia and Lugo. But anyways, today's been your average, typical, day. Work, homework, and pretty soon I'll be on my merry way to the gym for Group Power. I love that class. ...

| So Yesterday I *well it went to Ashlee's house* got the greatest thing in the mail!!! It was my Josh Beckett McFarlane *I spelled it wrong huh??* action figure :) So now I'm hooked on them, because they are awesome. I think the ONLY thing they should have done to make him look more realistic was give him puffier cheaks but I'm not picky. Now they just need to make a Tim Wakefield one and Ashlee can die happy :) haha
That is all for now because it is time for school...
